### 220

Three refugee wagons lay overturned in the shallow basin of the valley, their contents spilled out and scattered among the tall foliage. Lying among them are the torn and bloodied remnants of many Chai civilians. It is impossible to estimate just how many refugees have been slaughtered here for none of their corpses are wholly intact. You are sickened to witness several hulking grey shapes moving about in this killing field, pausing only to snatch up and gnaw at the remains of the dead.

If you have arrived at this location from the eastern tree-line, turn to 204.

If you have arrived here from the halted refugee column, after having chosen to go west (section 239), turn to 332.
